E. T. Smith Chosen Head Of Next
Year's Social Science
Group
Over 8,000 teachers from eveTy
corner of the state attended the
annual Teachers
Convention
which was held in Milwaukee last
Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
Glenn Frank Speaks
President Glenn Frank of the
University of Wisconsin d.elivered one of the main addresses,
"The Sword of Education", Friday morning in the city auditorium.
Practically all of the local faculty staff was present. Many of
the high school and grade school
teachers of the city also attended
the convention.
Smith Made Chairman
Mr. Ernest T. Smith, director
of the High school department,
was chosen chairman of the social
science section of next year's
meeting. He has been chairman of
the history section twice during
past years.
Smith was also nominated to
succeed himself as a member of
the Normal Schools RetiTement
Board. He has been a member ·of
this board since its founding in
1921.
Rogers Heads Chemistry
Mr. T. A. Rogers was chairman
of the chemistry division of this
year's convention.
At a meeting held in Milwaukee last Thursday members of the
Teachers Colleges Athletic Board
upheld the protests filed by
Whitewater and Eau
Claire
a•gainst Stevens Point. The charges claim that Be.r nard Garber,
Point tackle, played while ineligible m the two conference
games in which Stevens Point defeated both of the protesting
teams.
Holds Garber Eligible
The local Athletic Board's contentions were that Garber completed 18 weeks of curriculum
work and earned 12 credit hours,
which according to conference
ruels, makes any athlete eligible
for competition.
Members of the board declared
the Point athlete ineligible on the
grounds that his attendance was
scattered through a portion of
last semester, a summer term, and
the first several weeks of the
present term.
Five Favor Protests
Board members from Milwaukee, Platteville, River Falls, Superior, and La Crosse voted in
favor of the protest. Oshkosh,
Whitewater, Eau Claire and Stevens Point representatives did
not cast a vote. Stout's member
was absent.
Football standings in the teachers conference were revised as a
result of the board's action. Stevens Point has been pushed clown
to eighth place, automatica,Jly
forfeiting the Whitewater and
Eau Claire games.

WE'RE LEFT IN A QUANDARY OVER THE WHITEWATER.
EAU CLAIRE PROTESTS
V.,T e are not challenging the sincerity or honesty of the 'reachers
Colleges Athletic Board in its recent decision upholding the Whitewater and Eau Claire protests - but after carefully analyzing th~
situation neither can we say that we are in true accord with their
action.
Members of the board admit that conference rules regarding the
point which co11cerned Bernard Garber's eligibility are not specific.
Only five ·of the ten members of the board cast a vote on the alleged
violation committed by the Point. Those who did vote acted on
"technicalities" only because no rules which covered this particular
~ase could be found in the guide book.
Ri,•cr Falls Teachrrs College has g_uarters and no semesters. The
board last year agreed that any athlete who had successfully completed two quarters at River Falls or one quarter, a summer term and
part of another quarter, in all an equiva'l ent of 18 weeks, would be
eligible for athletic competition. Stevens Point acted on this assumption.
Not until Stevens Point had defeated the southern college did
Whitewater protest the game.
After Whitewater had notified
Mr. Edgar Doudna, secretary of the board of regents, that there was
a possibility of protest, Mr. Fred J. Schmeeckle, local board member,
drove to Madison. Mr. Doudna and Mr. Schmeeckle talked over the
phone with Mr. 1<-,ischer, Conference representative of ·whitewater.
At that time l\1r. Fischer assured both Doudna and Schmeeckle that
there would be no protest.
On the following week we played Eau Claire as our Homecoming
game. Prior to the game Mr. Schmeeckle phoned Mr. A. J. Fox, Eau
Claire conference member and present secretary of the athletic conference, relative to his view on Garber's eligibility. Mr. Fox assured
Mr. S<;_hmeeckle that it would be quite all right to use Garber in the
Eau Claire Game. After we defeated Eau Claire, Fox protested.
We cannot lmderstand the actions of Mr. Fox. If he had not
consented, <1arber would not have been permitted to play in the face
of the threatened protest on the part of Whitewater. We feel that
Mr. Fox has shown a very unsportsmanlike attitude and that he has
been very unf~ir to Central College.
Not belittling Garber in the least, but both Whitewater and Eau
Claire fans have admitted that Stevens Point would have defeated
their respective teams without the services of our protested player.
I~ocal Athletic Committee members would never have allowed Garber
to participate in any conference game had they thought that there
was the slightest opportunity of an e'ligibility question to arise.
Local school officials and Coach Eddie Kotal have taken the decision with no ill feelings toward anyone. Nevertheless it's a hard
pill to swallow.
Written rules failed to cover the point involved and only half
the board members, by a verbal •supplement to the rules, acted upon
the matter.
Undoubtedly the board members are just as disappointed that
this matter had to occur as we are. Nevertheless their action has left
us in a quandary.

President F. S. Hyer

Stevens Point, Wisconsin
My dear President Hyer:
I am writing to thank you for the
very courteous treatment which our men
received at Stevens Point. I have always been happy over this interchanging of courtesies which resulted in the
visiting delegation
being treated to
coffee and doughnuts. It was never
better appreciated than it was following the game on Saturday. We hadn't
expe~ted this second installment. It did
warm and cheer us for the trip home.
Please extend to your teachers and students concerned the gratitude of our
Oshkosh people. We shall hope to reciprocate in kind next year.
I wish .also to wngratulate your
school on the emphatic victory. While
we like to win, we can take a defeat.
I do not know when I have watched a
more interesting contest. In fairness
to our t eam, it did look as though we
might win during the second half, but
our hopes went glimmering after the
touchdown and the safety. The out
come of the game however is only part
of the relationRhip. We really enjoyed
the nice school spirit and the interchanged courtesy.
Cordially yours,
F.M.KARNES

Local Alumna Weds.
Friends of Ruby Curtis will be
interested to learn of the an·
nouncement of her marriage to
Mr. Glenn Howard Harman, on
October 24, at the Inglewood Presbyterian Church in Los Angeles,
California. Miss Curtis studied
journalism at. the University of
Wisconsin and in 1931 graduated
from the Primary Course at Central State Teachers College. During the past year, Mrs. Harman
has resided in Los Angeles while
tutoring in Hollywood. Mr. Harman, a native of Tulsa, Oklahoma,
is a landscape artist in Los Angeles.
The .Psi Beta Chapter of 8igma
Tau Delta held its meeting for the
purpose of initiating new members
in the Recreation Room at Nelson
Hall on Monday evening. A banquet-dinner, under the direction of
Miss Rowe, was served to more
than thirty members and guests.
At the table each pled?e gave a
toast to the organizati~~ and its
princicples. Formal initiation was
held later in the evening for Ethelwyn Baerwaldt, Cletus Collins, .Patricia Cowan, Carolyn Hanson, Dorothy McLain, Agnes Madsen, Celestine Nuesse, Vera Scheffner, Sigrid Stark, and Clarence Styza.
At the business sessbn which
followed plans were discussed re·
lative to the bringing of a prominent literary character to Central
State, such as has been done for
the past two years. In 1930 Dr.
Rollo W. Brown was on our campus for three days. Students re·
call with enjoyment the appear·
ance of Lew S'arett, woodsman
poet last year. Announcement will
be made later as to who will appear this year at 0. S. T. C.
At a meeting of the Harlequin
Club held last Monday night, Mr.
Knutzen delivered an address in
which he suggested that the organization sponsor a high school dramatic contest to include several
high schools in the immediate vicinity of Stevens Point. The matter is being given ~onsideration.
Possible plays were also di.scussed.
Two students have been initiated into the club recently. The new
members, Mrs. Kay Van Buskirk
and Miss Bernita Danielson, have
enviable dramatic records. It may
interest local students to know
that Mrs. Van Buskirk was formerly affiliated with Harry Culbertson, and sang the part of Hansel in ''Hansel and Gretel''. Mis~
Danielson is a graduate of Lawrence College, where she was a
member of the Sunset Players, and
has been a successful dramatic
